The powerful spray from your pressure washeris capable of causing damage to fragile sui'faces such as: wood, glass,
a_omobite paint, auto stripping and trim. and delicate objects such as flowers and shrubs. Before spraying, check the
item to be cleaned to assure yourself that it is robust enough to resist damage from the force of the spray. Avoid the
use of the concentrated spray stream except for very strong surfaces like concrete and steel.
Operating unit with water supply shut off without flow of water will result in equipment damage. You should
never run this pressure washer for more than 2 minutes without pulling the trigger to allow cool water to enter
the pump and the heated {recircula_ed) water to exit. Running the pressure washer with water supply shut off

Stopping Your Pressure Washer Engine Oil
A CAUTION: Do notrun pump without the water
supply connected and turned on.,Failure to do so
will result in pump damage,
To turn pressure washer off place the on/stop switch
to the stop position.
Simply shutting OFF engine will not release pressure
in the system, Squeeze the trigger on the spray gun
for about 3 seconds to reiieve pressure. Spray
stream witl decrease in length,
IMPORTANT: This unit is equipped with a thermal relief
valve. If unit is allowed to run for several minutes
without pressing the trigger on the spray gun, several
drops of water may be released through thls valve to
cool the unit. The heated water will be purged from the
bottom of the pump.
BEFORE STARTING ITHE ENGINE
To operate the engine you will need to do the folJowing,
,A,CAUTION; Always check engine olllevel before
every start,. Running engine low of oil or out of oil
could result in serious damage.
,& CAUTION; Always check pump oil level before
every start,. Running pump low on oit could result
in pump damage,,
Adding Pump Oil
Before running the high pressure washer, check the
pump oil level by viewing the sight glass on the side of
the pump. When properly filled, the oi{ will be at the
half way point marked by the two triangles., Your pres_
sure washer pump is shipped with oil. Add oil only if oil
level is tower than the half way point on the sight glass.
Do not overfill. Use 30 weight non-detergent oil if
necessary,
,_ CAUTION: Do Not use engine oil that has been
shipped with your unit in your pump. Engine oil
is detergent and your pump uses a non-detergent
oil Detergent oil can cause damage to your pump,
Your unit has been shipped without oil in the engine,
A bottie of SAE 30 weight oil is included in the carton..
Remove oil plug located on the side of engine. Using a
funnel, fill engine crankcase up to the last thread in the
oil port. Pour slowlyo Oil reading Will be inaccurate on
unlevel ground..
NOTE."When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use
a high quality detergent oil classified "For Service SF,
SG, SH rated SAE 30 weight". Use no special addi-
tives, Select the oil's viscosity grade according to
your expected operating temperatures.
................ SA_._,_,_._'er_d_
Air cooled engines run hotter than automotive engines,
The use of multFviscosity oii such as (10W-30, etc,) in
ambient temperatures above 40°F (4°C) will result ]n
higher than nomlal oil consumption,, if mufti-viscosity
oil bsused, check the oil level more frequently to
prevent any posssible engine damage due to lack or
lubrication.
Use of SAE30 oi!below 40=F (4°C) wilt result in hard
starting and possible engine damage due to inad-
equate lubrication,
Gasoline
Your pressure washer engine is 4 cycle,. Use unleaded
fuel only.
CAUTION: Do not overfill the fuel tank.. Always
allow room for _uel expansion.,
_,,'WARNING: Never fill fuel tank indoors., Never
ftll fuel tank when engine is running or hot, Do
not smoke or have open flame when filling fuel
tank.
Use cfean, fresh, reguEarunleaded gaso!ine with a

NOTE: If yot_ do not plan to use your unit for 30 days or
- more, unit should be prepared for storage.
lt4PORTANT: tt is importa_nt to prevent gum deposits
from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the
carburetor, fuel filter hose or tank during storage. Also,
experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called
gasoho) or using ethanol or methanol) can attract mois-
ttjre which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage, Acidic gas can damage the fue_system
of an engine whi}e in storage, To avoid engine problems,
the fuel system shouid be emptfed before storage of 30
days or longer, Never use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may
occur,
Engine Preparation
First add a fuel stabilizer to the fuel tank,
- Run pressure washer for full 5 minutes to allow fuel
stabilizer to enter the fuel system,
NOTE; While doing this procedure make sure water
supply is turned on and flowing to the unit., NEVER run
unit without water supply running through pump.,
Next shut off engine and disconnect the water supplyo
- Disconnect the spark plug wire and remove the spark
plug,
° Add one teaspoon of oil through the spark piug hole.
15
Place rag over spark plug hole and pull the recoil a
few times to lubricate the combustion chamber,
Replace the spark plug, but do not connect the spark
plug wire,
Pump Preparation
This pressure washer should be stored in such a way to
protect it from freezing, Do not store this unit outdoors
or In an area where temperatures will fall below 32° E
This can cause extensive damage to this unit.
If unit has to be stored under freezing conditions a non-
toxic RoV,anti-freeze can be used to protect from
freezing,
Be sure engine switch is in "OFF" position and spark
plug wire has been removed from spark plug,
Pull the trigger on the spay gun to release the
pressure in the high pressure hose, Detach high
pressure hose and garden hose from the unit.,
Pull the recoil on the engine 4 to 6 times to discharge
remaining water in pump,
Tip the unit on the end w_th the water inlet fitting
potnting upward,
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of non-toxic RV., anti-
freeze down the fitting where the water hose attaches
to the pump,
Set unit upright and put! starter handte on engine 4 to
6 times to circulate anti-freeze in pump until anti-
freeze is d;soharged from the pump,
